The Sun Descends

Won’t you tell me another story?
Cause I can’t seem to get to sleep
You know I wanted to sign my cast
When we were younger but I was too afraid to ask
Yea I said I need your love everyday
In my break arms I seem to hold myself
The fractured bone and the pain
My wrist collapsed under my bodies weight
And my soul detached to space
And I need your love everyday, everyday
I cant today, I’m too sad to trip
Just tryna last a bit longer than I already did
I spend my time putting love to the test
But it’s the only thing, to make it out the other end
And i need your love everyday, everyday, everyday

Temptation With You
03:54
|

The years of my life as they pass
Have been so open and so dense
With the time between moments
And the language past words
I’m so glad to hear your voice
I’m so glad youre in this world, of all the endless worlds
I think of laying in your arms
And the forever of a purgatorys calmness
But then i realize it’s heaven in radiator heat
So simple in your movements like cedar growth in low light
Losing track of time but im so fine with who i spend it
I’m glad to give in to temptations with you
So let’s go slow, let’s take it slow
Jesus spoke from the mountain to the living and the ghost
Had he found himself filled with doubt
Then what could I be so sure about?
Nothing. I wont think about it
I’m just so glad it happened
I’m glad to give in to temptations with you
Give in to temptations with you
In honesty I’d be fine without you
And i hope you’re happy to hear that,
Cause I’d be with you.
Yea i’d be with you
If you’d be with me

Crawl Into The Waves
02:50
|

Someone take me home I need to be alone
Someone take me home I’ve had one too many now
I’m alone on this road at midnight, in moonlight.
The breeze leads me, asphalt to the reeds.
I can feel the sand on my feet, this is just what i need
I dont what day it is, i don't know where i am
All i know is I'm alone on the beach
So i crawl into the waves, crawl into the waves
In hope that theres something to find
Like the ghosts of my life i float towards the light
Crawl into the waves and they take me down
I release the sea inside and emerge from the tide
Crawl into the waves (repeat)

Cold Bodies
03:12
|

The room was less full without her
Being awake in the way she used to be
Before the sickness
Before she stopped eating anything
We stayed in the living room that night
“Wait, why wont you wait? Why wont you hold on?”
“Cold Bodies”
“Cold Bodies”
“Say It Again”
Say it again, say it again
Make me happy, cold body
Know you can’t, Come back again
But we’re holding on to faith
But you cant No you can’t, come back again

Learn To Float
03:43
|
|||
What does it mean to go away?
Is there any other place?
Is there a pulse to this world?
And does it guide us through?
Do you follow the voice?
That’s looking for something too?
When there’s nothing to find?
There’s never been something to find
But we define actions
And we use words
We hold court in ourselves
And we follow the pulse of this world
My whole life I’ve tried to find it not knowing what it is.
Have you tried to find it not knowing what it is?
I’m just trying to learn how to float x 4

Nothing, Again
02:41
|
|||
I fell in love in the worst way
And i fell for all your old tricks
And i knew you
Or at least i thought, and still think
I fell into the water
And i felt something for the first time
I’m caught in the pages
The retelling of my life as it happens
I fell in love in the worst
And i fell for all your old tricks
And I knew you
Or so I thought
Nothing Again.
See Nothing Again.
See Nothing Again.
I See Nothing.
I See Nothing, Again.

Longing
03:55
|

1000 hours, don't think i’d let you go
The voice got louder, but i will let you know
I was a coward cause death is cold
I lost all power not tryna be alone
You put you’re hand next to me
But i hold my own instead
Grasping at arms, staring at my phone
I’m scared I’m almost done
Cause then I’ll be gone
I’m happy with any person I get to be
I’m happy with any person I get to be
Summer falls, but then i’ts winter spring
Feel like an evergreen floating in the dead sea
And i walk around all these city streets
In the cold, and in the dead heat
And I’m happy with any person that I get to be
And I’m happy with any person that I get to be
And I’m happy with any person that I get to be
And I’m happy with any person that I get to be

Direct

Maybe this is just me trying to show where I go when I turn to ghost
In the middle of the room i stand when the mood hits
Then i cruise around and start losing myself
Driving down the coast watch myself walk out from the ocean
From when i went down, i cant do this again
Remember when we were quiet cause she stopped eating
Pretending it’s fine, that we still had time
Is there a bottom of my self, past aching worth grieving?
When in the midst of my life, I’m forced to think of these things?
Maybe this is just me trying to show where I go when I turn to ghost
And the walls go from closing to caving in
And what starts raging inside me
Then i discovered I had to decide
If i had the universe in my jaw
Or if i felt the pulse of this world
Maybe this is just me where I go when I learn to float
In the middle of the night,
When all is dark
I can still see the light

The Moon Creeps In
03:55
|

Said I’m fine but the moon’s in the distance
And it’s creeping in again
Said I’m fine but the moon’s in the distance
And it’s creeping in again
I’m sorry i just need to be alone
Cause my heart is a battle zone
And my soul is a catacomb
And in all of my efforts of letting it go
My body sends shock waves to my muscles and bones
So my hands still hold
And my hands are still cold
Said I’m fine but the moon’s in the distance
And it’s creeping in again
I’m sorry I didnt mean to yell
I can see how it seems I’m not doing that well
But believe me when I say I made it through hell
Just give me my time it’s the easiest way to help
Honestly I’m just tryna be a better self
I got keys to this locked room
I open the door but I’m still blocked in
Knees weak on the concrete
But we all seem to be longing
So what would my calls mean if they aren’t answered?
Nothing, we mean nothing
But I’m fine with the moon in the distance
That’s creeping in again
